THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C.. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 8. 1890—TEN PAGES. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON: October %, 1890. Cireniation of any Newspaper in the World, and as m Advertising Medium is worth The decision of contested elections by the American mode is apt to leave a sting and work sn injury in the repetition of whatever evil may attend the decision, These decisions have been so froquently in accordance with the bias of the party in control that e large portion of the public seems to expect nothing else. There is perhaps nothing singular in the expectation, to matter what party is responsible for the decision. Party feeling is often high and it slways existe. The very best men are under its sway. Perhaps it is impossible to be eman- tipated wholly from its thrall. If possible in s republic it would notbe desirable for the sitizen to be free from predeliction in favor of some party. And the prejudice that exists in sther respects is apt to exist in the matter of deciding upon the right of a member to a seat in Congress. It is not a proper feeling never to consider the morits of the case but to de- termine all points blindly in favor of one’s party. It is but natural for an honest man to stady the outlines of such cases and then to give bis own party the benefit of such doubts as remain after sachexamivation. The English Parliament does not decide its election con- tests. They are determined for it by the law courts and there is no complaint, so far as Tue Sran is aware, that the decisions aro regardep with suspicion by the party which loses the seat. It has been suggested many times that the Congress of the United States should foi- low the English example. To this there is the sufficient reply that the habits and thoughts of the two nations are now very different and that the constitution of the courts is also very different in the two countries. The Amorican courts sre more political, that is they are con- stituted by parties, but not as a rule—let us say and hope—to be the implements of party. Mr. Bryce has done the federal courts of this republic the high but deserved credit of as- sorting for them asa whole absolute imparti- ality snd disinterestedness. The few excep- tions he has indicated and has assigned rea- sons for the same. There is, however, a cer- tain repugnance on the part of our people to place the judiciary in any position where its candor and purity would be impeached or strongly suspected. Hence, in spite of the evils of the present system, the decision of election contests is likely to long remain where it now is—with the houses of Congress. $< steemed cotemporary, the Congres- Record, bas finally struck the path of progress and the issue of yesterday (the last) contains 8 number of full-page cuts illustrat- ing Gen. Wheeler's speech on “Rivers and Our stonal Harbors.” Naturally the topic is not one to produce sensational results through illustra- tion and the artist has not exceeded his gub- ject. It is unfortunate for the trath and clearer development of history that the Zecord had not begun its sketches several weeks ago, when the subject matter, in the House at Jeast, was much meatier and the genius and skill of the artist could have found a wider field of expression. What is past is past, but there is ® session yet remaining, with Mr. Reed in the chsir and the minority as demo- cratic as usual and the Mecord may still redeem itself. oo ‘The banana peel accident is becoming so fre- quent and the broken limbs and bruised per- sons attributable to it are increasing at such a rate that m order to remedy the evil a police ordinance might well be put into effect making it a punishable offense to throw banana peels on the street or sidewalks, and such an ordinance should be followed closely by a few @rrests and fines for violation. All that is ‘necessary is to impress upon the minds of care- Jess and thoughitless people that it is an offense against the law to inflict bodily injury upon an- other carelessly or otherwise. Ove or two ar- rests and the banana peel thrower will organize a watch on the rind and prevent further acci- denta, ee The International Literary Congress in Lon- don has thanks for the friends of international copyright in America, but not much hope of anything being soon accomplished. The view of Count Keratry is more hopeful. He told the congress that a fresh bill would be discussed in December and would pass. The difficulties in the way are increased by a short session, but they may not be insuperable. Tue Star feels that if the United States Congress is wise in its day and generation it will pass the bill in ques- tion as an act of justice and honest; ——<$—<$— The registration in Baltimore is alesson and Swarning. Out of 110,000 persons qualified only about 96,000 registered, and still there is malediction in Baltimore because the unde- sirable element has too much to do in politics, If the business men interested in honest poli- tics want things conducted more satisfactorily they must take the trouble to assert them- gelves, and the abstainer from registration is stopped from grumbling. ‘The heroes are not all in gilded life, on field orforum, The devotion of the firemen at the explosion of the Dupont powder mills saved the lives of hundrods of human beings and pre- Berved the residue of the company’s property Biter six milis had been destroyed. ———— ‘The capture of the noted Alabama outlaw, Rube Burrows, by a farmer and two Afro- —— citizens after the trained detectives struggled in vain for years to secure the Feward is joke on the detective fraternity which the “truly rural” mind can appreciate to the utmost limit of its hilariousness. ae eeatgmasen ‘The Atlanta Constitution, in its usual reckless and outrageous manner of making charges against anything northern, particularly if it be republican, says Speaker Reed was compelled to wear sash as a result of an attack of Louis- Ville pie.
